Unity With G-d

Unity With G-d: Three types of relationships: I it, I thou, and I I.

In an “I it” relationship we use another person as an object that does something for us. “I thou” is a genuine encounter between two people. “I” is when we see the other person as an extension of ourselves. The highest level is perfect oneness; both parties are the same. All of these relationships can apply to our relationship with G-d.

Hebrew

Hebrew: Hebrew is the key to freedom. We can only truly experience the freedom of our ancestors by reliving their Hebrew. Reading a translation of Hebrew is like kissing a bride though a veil; it’s not the full experience.

Hardship

Hardship: Suffering is optional. We can interpret hardship negatively or we can find the good in it. We should ask, “What is this experience teaching me?” If we feel connected to a loss, we should ask, “should I feel this way?” The difficult experience becomes a tool for self reflection and evaluation.

If constantly seeking an answer, focus properly on the question before falling sleep and the answer may come in a dream.
